Camping is oftentimes a relaxing adventure. It's a way to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. That is why when RV owners travel, they can sometimes forget to implement security measures.

It's not even uncommon for people to leave their RV or travel trailer unlocked when they leave the RV park. But, unfortunately, that leaves easy targets for thieves to hit.

While you should not spend time worrying about your RV being broken into, it is still a good idea to be prepared. (Jennifer and I have been broken into before!)

Installing an RV security system is a great place to start when looking to secure your RV! Not only are security systems great when you are using your RV, but they can also be useful during the off-season. At the very least, they will provide you with peace of mind throughout the year.

2. Are there Motion Detector and Alerts?

One of the best security features of an RV security camera is a motion detector. It alerts you when unusual activity is happening outside of your RV. Most cameras send an alert when the motion sensors are signaled in the form of a text message or other notification.
